anskaven Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Hi everyone, I am using Kalyway 10.5.1 on vanilla kernel, a few questions here, -Just would like to ask whether Ricoh PCMCIA slots work? -Sigmatel 9200 is working all right for me except that headphones are muted after sleep (although it is not when I unplug the headphone). This problem is strange and so far I cannot find it anywhere else on the net. Is there a fix for this? -Are SpeedStep and Power Management (batteries etc.) available on Kalyway? Can I use the installation packages from Uphuck 10.4.9? Thanks a lot.

CK Lee Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I have a working copy of 10.4.7 with support for Ricoh PCMCIA slots. This is the only one I find working but I don't know which kext to make it work.

SA22C Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 SpeedStep support is spotty and somewhat unstable but if you want to try it out, you'll have to get the netkas compiled kernel and the ACPICPUThrottle installer. I often have to load the .kext manually on my notebook as it will randomly fail to load about half the time when my notebook boots up. Additionally, if you have a power state below 1 GHz, the ACPICPUThrottle .kext will not use it due to an error in the reporting system. The battery life on my notebook is much improved, however, so it's worth using. http://netkas.org http://www.nedprod.com/programs/MacOS%20X/...ttle/index.html Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/84008-ricoh-pcmcia-slot-sigmatel-9200-speedstep-power-management/#findComment-604293 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluedogmike Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 The Ricoh pcmcia controller works on Kalyway 10.5.1 on my gateway m320 laptop. the trick is to use a different IOPCIFamily.kext. The version I use is 1.8. Hope it helps, Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/84008-ricoh-pcmcia-slot-sigmatel-9200-speedstep-power-management/#findComment-604874 Share on other sites More sharing options...
